Enviroment Artist

Remote Full-time
Junior Environment Artist – For Academic Credit or Mentorship

Company: shortart.co

Location: Remote/On-site/Hybrid

Eligibility:

Open to students seeking academic credit, mentorship, or OPT (F-1 visa) students (must meet DOL criteria for unpaid work or U.S. Residents Only).

About the Role:

Join shortart.co as a Junior Environment Artist and gain hands-on experience in the foundational phase of world-building and digital set dressing. This role is dedicated to the "world-building" process ensuring that concept art is transformed into functional, immersive, and aesthetically cohesive 3D or 2D environments.

This unpaid internship is designed to provide educational value, mentorship, and professional development. You will work under the supervision of experienced artists to learn the nuances of modular workflows, lighting, texture density, and technical optimization.

Key Responsibilities:

Asset Refinement: Translate rough environmental concepts into polished 3D assets or 2D layouts while maintaining the intended mood and scale.

Architectural Continuity: Ensure buildings, props, and natural elements remain consistent with provided style guides and period-specific references.

Technical Staging: Adjust asset placement and composition to ensure environments are optimized for camera paths and gameplay/narrative flow.

Iterative Learning: Receive direct mentorship and feedback on PBR (Physically Based Rendering) workflows, topology, and spatial composition.

Collaborative Reviews: Participate in project reviews to understand how environmental storytelling impacts the overall production pipeline.

Requirements:

Strong Spatial Awareness: A portfolio demonstrating a solid understanding of perspective, composition, lighting, and environmental storytelling.

Education: Currently enrolled in (or recently graduated from) a Game Design, Animation, Architecture, or related art program.

Software Skills: Proficiency in industry-standard tools (e.g., Photoshop, Procreate, Blender or Substance Painter).

Learning Mindset:

Seeking academic credit or mentorship to bridge the gap between student projects and professional-grade world-building.

For OPT students: Position is unpaid and meets DOL criteria for unpaid internships.

Additional Notes

Schedules are flexible to accommodate academic calendars and learning goals. All work is educational, supervised, and structured around skill development rather than production quotas. This is an unpaid internship focused on professional growth and portfolio development.
• SCAD Alumni preferred, but all are welcome to apply!
